As long as no one makes any negative or neutral remarks about Nomura, Kitase, Hamaguchi, Toriyama, Matsuno, Kingdom Hearts, Final Fantasy XIII, Lightning, Remake, Tactics, or E33 we will be fine.

As long as no one makes any positive or neutral remarks about XIV, XVI, Yoshida, CS3, Spirits Within, or Sakaguchi we will be fine.

Jimbo here again. This is kind of expanding on my thoughts about /ffg/ that I started here >>543795586 but it seems like this place might just be the path of least resistance for certain people to "control" what popular FF opinion is. You see the discourse on social media and it's clearly uncontrollable, and even /v/ can't be swayed no matter how dedicated you are. But here the thread moves so slowly and has so few people here, any single anon can brute force how "everyone" feels about each FF game and what we all can agree SE is doing right or wrong. Not that it actually works here either, but it certainly does explain why several posters here seem far more interested in spending all their time making their enemies sound wrong instead of saying their own opinions and trying to argue their cases. This reinforces the idea there's the "objective truth" we all agree with, and anyone contradicting it is simply wrong. The goal isn't discussion, it's the opposite. It's a shame.

jimbo doesn't post here

I do though. Well, I don't in the sense that the two dozen different accounts belonging to different people that my number 1 fan took screenshots of weren't mine, I suppose. They probably don't post here. I'd be amazed if we saw evidence to the contrary.

I told you countless times over the years that that account wasn't mine. Glad to see you've finally accepted that fact. Now the real challenge: are you willing to say that the person who did those reddit posts uses /ffg/? And if not, why do you bring up a guy who posted something on reddit 5 years ago here so often?

You will not answer this and everyone will see your deflection, even though that means admitting you spent 5 years being a schizo for no reason.

Obviously, someone made """him""" very upset at some point in the far distant past (during "Remake" threads, not even Rebirth threads) on either another website or on /v/, and he's carrying his emotional baggage into this thread where none of what he's complaining about has ever occurred. Whoever he's still carrying the emotional baggage of, into places that it doesn't belong, is quite clearly his personal enemy.

There is no way that Hamaguchi actually said to play the Remake (which isn't even complete yet) before the original if someone has played neither. Do you have a source for that?

Damn. He really did say that. What a soulless, scummy salesman. He really hasn't said anything that would give anyone a positive impression about him and any of the recent interviews that people have been posting. He's clearly just saying whatever he thinks needs to be said in order to get people to buy the Switch ports. That's what this PR tour is about, right? The Switch port?

Like, who the fuck genuinely recommends playing an INCOMPLETE and bastardized Remake version of a *before* playing the original of that same game? Maybe if there was a "Complete Edition" bundle available for $60, then if someone had 300 hours of their life to sink into a game and they NEEDED it to be Final Fantasy VII, then sure you can recommend the Remake over the original... but that's not ever going to be the case, and it's certainly not the case now because the Remake ISN'T EVEN FINISHED yet, and even if it was, it's not fucking available on the Switch yet, only Remake will be. It all just reeks of

I think the new Dissidia game is basically like a mobile 3v3 MOBA sort of deal. Kinda lame, but I'll probably still give it a shot. Krile is probably god tier, assuming she has a way to reliably accrue Brave so that she can give it to the other 2 teammates. Zidane might also be good since he steals Brave. Prompto might be good too because he can paralyze people at range. Everyone else just seems like different flavors of damage. Gaia buffs and debuffs, but it didn't really seem that impactful in the little snippet. Maybe her slow (or her 50% atk/def buffs) is actually debilitating in the real game. Her own damage didn't seem very good compared to the others though.

Something that I think he gets wrong in his break down of the game, I think the boss HP at the top is both teams. Like, the left side is how much HP (You) have dealt to the boss, and the right side is how much the opposing team has dealt to the boss (or vice versa), and whichever team defeats the boss first wins.

>>544101401
Octopath is not set in Ivalice, nor is it Matsuno. It's Team Asano, who usually does HD2D Remakes.

If Vagrant Story and Tactics Ogre, both Matsuno, both Ivalice, are in the filter pastebin as off-topic games that the shitposter likes to mention, then Octopath should be as well.
>>
>>544101956
>both Matsuno, both Ivalice
ivalice is part of Final Fantasy.
But Octopath is not, since it has no connection to FF beyond superficial 2.5d graphics meant to emulate SNES FF.
Hope this clears things up for you!

I'm just going by the filter pastebin list of off-topic games the shitposter likes to talk about. If Ivalice/Matsuno games are in there (Vagrant Story and Tactics Ogre) then Octopath belongs in there as well.

Add Octopath to the filter pastebin.

It's neat. I liked it both times I played it. It's kinda archaic though. It would probably be better if they remastered it like they did with Tactics, but it's going to be years before we hear about that, if it's ever happening at all.

XVI was a different kind of mistake from XIII. XIII had a good excuse for being shit as it was their first HD game, so the engine wasn't perfect yet so they had to design the game linearly while focusing on prerendered cutscenes and graphics. XVI has no excuse for being shit. It was intentionally shit from the start by retarded devs who wanted to cater to a modern audience.

In a previous thread I said something about finally playing rebirth and that, if it wasn't good enough, I would stop playing new FF games. And someone told I wasn't capable of letting go like that.

Put it on Active (the most important thing), put Battle speed on fastest. You may speed up Battle/Field messages slightly, but they don't effect anything but the fact that you have less time to read stuff, they will not make anything mechanical faster.

In the future you should do this Active + fastest battle speed on any ATB Final Fantasy except FFVI, where you should choose Active and slowest battle speed, because the developers thought of things backwards there.

It's definitely going to be a reuse of assets that have already been mostly built out in Rebirth, but we're not getting the game until 2027 probably. If we get it in 2026, I think that will be a bit of a red flag, especially if it's before Christmas.

Play the original game, you silly goose.

You should have already done that, but right now would be a perfect time. If you liked Remake, and you like the original game (you will), then your experience with Rebirth can/should be heightened. You'll see what's been changed and expanded on, and you could have a greater connection to the experience. At least that was true for me, as I replayed FFVII on Steam before playing Rebirth.

FF8 deserves a remake more than FF9

FF9 is peak FF though. It's definitely getting a remake before VIII.

No, it doesn't. VI deserves a remake. Or IX.

Its a no-brainer that they should remake the first nine games, but what about the PS2 era games. Should X/X-2 and XII get remade?

>>544177787
Why wouldn't you like more FF? It's good to rebuy games you know you already liked, especially if they're improved. Also, it stimulates the fandom, which draws more interest to the franchise. It's a win/win.

The devs of Remake have said that you should NOT play the original. You have to play Rebirth now, and then you have to wait for Part 3 to come out. Then, there might even be more after that, we don't know yet. Once the VII Remake is totally finished, only then can you play the original VII.

I don't think they should remake every game. But I do I think they should absolutely remake the PS1 era games. Maybe, just maybe a select few other choice titles like IV, VI or X.

Realistically VIII and IX should be the next remakes, after FFXVII, and they should be as faithful as possible to the original story with straight forward PS1 styled overworlds to match. Develop both games simultaneously, across both CS1 and CS3 even. Reuse the new ATB action combat system from VIIR, or reuse the XVII system, and as many of your assets as you can to get the games out in sufficient time. With all the original 3D era games at the same level of gameplay and fidelity alongside each other in the modern era, it could bring the series (and their teams) full circle again.

You offer a contemporary experience inside of the golden age packaging to reestablish those root connections and sell that nostalgia trip to people who never even had it to begin with. They'd also be putting the FF teams into a stronger position to be as successful as possible whenever it comes to making new games that honor the legacy and spirit in a major way. Then maybe after more new games come out, they could go for the X or VI Remake. Or maybe do a remake of the original FF game, into a massive reimagining project that goes balls to the wall with all of the most advanced tech that you can use, just as they did in VIIR. That would need to be 10-15 years from now.

The way I see it, remakes should only be used as a stepping stone towards a new game. You can revisit old game designs with the most current technology in order to "find yourself again" and teach all of the new younger team members on how to make "franchise game" their way. But then you always let them loose on their own new game. You don't send them down the path of endless remakes

As long as we get more remakes, I'm happy with whatever, really.

The same can be said for XIII. Many fags will come shill XIII when the remaster drops and talk about how cool Lightning is, she's so strong she doesn't need any man blah blah and claiming she's a better MC than other FF protags without having played the game themselves.

It's easy to shill a game you've never actually played.

True. It's very weird that they developers of Remake seem to have a certain disdain for the original. It makes sense though. The Remake really is nothing like the original. It has the same character names, the same character designs, but the characters aren't actually the same and neither is the narrative. They're using Final Fantasy VII's skinsuit to further their own agendas (line their pocketbooks)

I want FFVIII Remake to have action. Yeah. If it was ATB with a great cinematic camera animations, that would be pretty great too, sure. But it wouldn't really feel like a new game to me unless they do something out of the box that we wouldn't be expecting. Same with IX Remake. I want to control Vivi and throw black magic spells and have fun with action combat while switching between awesome, animated characters doing cool shit.

I don't want to buy FFVIII again if it's the exact same but there is voice acting now. There would need to be significant changes made to the gameplay system. I want something that feels cutting edge. That's what it deserves

Maybe, it's just not what I would desire. I would want VIII and IX back to back first.
I want technology to jump forward a bit more. FFX Remake should be absolutely unbelievable. Right now, it would just be a better VIIR. I think VIII and IX should be the "better VIIR". Let CS1 do VIII, let CS3 do IX. Do it after FFXVII.

Lots of segments of VIII are begging for action combat but you have to remember you also spend a lot of time walking around in big wide fields. The action combat in 7R is perfect for boss fights but it seems over the top when you fight some little runt out in the fields a dozen times.

>“Considering the way to depict social problems, social issues, and cultural depictions, in some ways, I am a bit embarrassed by the original title,” Kitase says. “In its expression, in some ways, it was very young and naive in itself. That is a learning for us, but at the same time, I do believe that perhaps that is one of the reasons why it was so widely accepted. It’s not perfect, and it’s kind of uneven and jagged in its young and naive nature of its depiction. Of course, after [more than] 25 years, there is a lot of personal learning, changes, and growth. But looking back on it, some parts of it, I am a bit embarrassed.”

Detective, you're beginning to spiral again. You're falling into your trademark loop of logical fallacies where everything that disproves your schizophrenic delusions actually proves them.

It is quite the conundrum. Especially knowing that I've been called Jimbo probably over a hundred different times by now, and I know that I'm not the Reddit account he's obsessed with, nor the YouTuber he's obsessed with, nor do I own the Steam account that he's obsessed with, nor do I own the Twitch account that he's obsessed with. Perhaps if he had never hounded me for hours on end about me supposedly being the person he has been obsessed with for years I'd be more inclined to believe him, but as it stands it seems much more like he's a deeply schizophrenic hammer, and everyone around him is his personal white nail.

Everyone who is still here is intimately familiar with the Detective's 5 year schizophrenic solo witch hunt which has quite serendipitously led him to the incorrect conclusion that every time anyone on any website has ever said anything that he didn't like, it all goes back to the Reddit post from 5 years ago.

And nothing of value was lost.

It's just funny that he wants to continue posting about bigjim so bad no matter how many times he makes a fool out of himself but he also doesn't want to talk about it, just deflect and ask timewasting questions. He's obsessed with the chase but has no idea what to do beyond that.
You're talking about a guy who will say "shut up jimbo" but if you ask him who he means he'll do 50 schizoposts questioning everyone instead of answering. Anything to keep the case open but unsolved.

So I got Vagrant Story up and running. Pretty good so far. Really nice looking for a PS1 game.

It's a great looking game. How are you finding the combat? First time I played it I had no idea what I was doing

Oh, so it IS me? That guy from earlier today is going to hit the roof when he finds out.
I won't even ask for proof, I'll just accept it.
It's me, everyone!

Combat feels good but I read a bit about it before starting. I like it. Really interesting approach.

I'd like to play it again. I went in blind and didnt have a handle on the way the systems worked for too long. A fresh playthrough but knowing what Im doing would be good.

Lightning and Vanille are rightly beloved around here, but what does everyone think of Fang?

Fang is my favorite dragoon in the series next to Kain or Cid. Love the tribal designs and aggressive haircut. Super model good looks

We love FFXIII Trilogy here.

We hate FFXIII Trilogy here.

Not that guy, but VS is more preparation than anything else. Once you get a more comfortable understanding of damage types (+ your inevitable anti-ghost weapon) and buffs, it's considerably more straightforward than you might expect. Despite the menu usage being overbearing, I'd suggest regiving it a try, there's certainly not a lot of games like it.

nah my general is fast and healthy
your shitty general is finally dying and you can thank the resident shitposters for that

we can thank the failure of recent titles like XVI and dawntrail for fans not returning to FF.

What general do you hail from, traveler?

Reminder that XVI and Dawntrail both respectively outsold Rebirth at least 2x over.

Feels like there's a 50/50 split on YouTube when it comes to the reception of Rebirth's story and execution as a remake. The one thing that seems unanimous is the enjoyment of the main gameplay during combat. Though I'll be honest, I don't have much motivation to watch the videos leaning positive. It already got a Metacritic over 90 and a GOTY nomination, so I'm kinda full when it comes to seeing its praises. Me? I guess I'm neutral. I'm two games in, and may as well see how it ends for myself.

>>544236679
Very bold of you to use XIV to shit on Rebirth when in reality, it's FF7 that actually carries the franchise's name while the others are tainting it.
>>
>>544240620
This is only really true for
>VIII (IX suffered)
>XIII (everything suffered)
>XIV 1.0 (luckily the revamp brought back good will, and Dawntrail isn't THAT bad to ruin it)
>XV (the final killing blow for the series to ever sell double digit millions)
XVI and Remake were just alright, and Rebirth's good critical reception wasn't enough because of exclusivity nonsense, which also hurt XVI.
>>
>>544241825
XVI is anything but alrigh, that trash hurt the franchise more than XV ever did, just compare both sales numbers and prove me wrong
>>
>>544236679
You triggered the VIIRgin cultist
>>
>>544240620
Lmao at this. You clearly haven't played many Final Fantasy games.
lil bro thinks we just need endless VII spinoffs no matter how little they sell.
>>
Shitting on Remake and Rebirth sales is a pointless topic. You know how SE operates, they'll just bundle the whole trilogy's sales together, call it one game, then drop a 'complete edition' later to easily hit 10 million. Nobody's going to track each game's individual numbers. There's nothing you can do about it.
>>
I keep refusing to learn that you can't have a worthwhile discussion here. Barry fucked things up and we're still feeling the effects almost a decade later.
>>
>>544236679
It's funny that the VIIRgin keeps deflecting to Yoshida games when no matter how much Dawntrail and XVI might have "flopped" in his eyes, Rebirth did significantly worse.
